    Got Some Goodies from Grandpa

    Was up at the family reunion when grandpa mentioned he had found a few items from his time in the military. Low and behold, it's a cleaning kit for the M1icon still in the box, and a few target patches.







    M1/M3 Carbine: late '44 Inland
    M1 Garand: late '44 Springfield

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    It wouldn't cost much to buy those same items, at a gun show or an auction site. But the fact they were your GRANDPA'S makes them a whole lot more valuable!

    This means you need another (or first) M1icon and the pasters mean you need to get thyself to the range..... As Hank Williams Jr., says, "It's an Old Family Tradition!" CC
